Braided Cotton Sash Cord Rope - 3/16" x 100' / 1 / Black

Our sash cord is expertly crafted with a durable, reinforced nylon core wrapped in a polished 100% cotton braided outer cover, creating a rope that balances strength, flexibility, and smooth handling. Traditionally designed for counterbalance systems in double-hung sash windows, this cord is engineered to perform reliably in both residential and industrial settings.

Double-hung sash windows operate on a system of cords, weights, and pulleys, and our sash cord provides the essential low-stretch, abrasion-resistant line necessary to maintain smooth window operation and safety. The cotton braid is soft to the touch, allowing easy knot tying that holds firm without fraying or unraveling, while the nylon core offers enhanced tensile strength and resistance to wear and tear.

Beyond window applications, this versatile rope is perfect for a wide range of tasks including clotheslines, home restoration projects, awnings, hammocks, draperies, tarp rigging, arts and crafts, theatrical set design, and many outdoor uses. Its strong construction and low stretch properties ensure that knots stay tight and rope integrity lasts over time.

The sash cord’s polished cotton finish not only makes it easy to handle but also offers excellent abrasion resistance, ensuring it stands up to repeated use indoors or out. Available in classic black and white, this cord blends well for both functional and decorative purposes.
